Ghetto Child - Mystikal[00:00:00]
It's crazy out here uhhhhhhh[00:00:01]
Yo mama I'm trying to keep my head strong whats up Mystikal[00:00:03]
Uhhhhhh uhhhhhh I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:00:06]
Uhhhhhh I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:00:11]

Uhhhhhh I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:00:22]
Mama I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:00:25]
I feel like a bird nigga with no wings[00:00:29]
I'm stuck in this ghetto trying to have a little change[00:00:32]
My homies killing up each other cause we gotta eat[00:00:36]
And I ain't tripping cause I'm running from the police[00:00:40]
I done seen little kids in the projects starving[00:00:43]
I done seen more hoes messing then Marvin[00:00:47]
See in the ghetto the sun it barely shines[00:00:50]
But so many niggas in jail and the welfare lines[00:00:54]
And all my life I thought bill Clinton ran the country[00:00:57]
Until I found out bill gates had all the money[00:01:01]
And the media starting east and west coast wars[00:01:05]
I'm from the south where they predijuce on us all[00:01:08]
Come out of the powdered milk and eggs don't fill us up[00:01:12]
But why the government sold us drugs and charges to clean us up[00:01:15]
Gave us three halves and high interest student loans[00:01:19]
Four dollar minimum wage and section eight we call it home[00:01:22]
Uhhhhhh this ghetto got me crazy[00:01:26]
Mama won't you pray for your baby[00:01:30]
Uhhhhhh I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:01:33]
Mama I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:01:37]
Uhhhhhh this ghetto got me crazy[00:01:41]
Mama won't you pray for your baby[00:01:44]
Uhhhhhh I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:01:48]
Mama I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:01:51]
It's real when you can do whatever you want to do[00:01:54]
When you want to do it[00:01:56]
Ain't to many niggas out there living like that[00:01:58]
That's why the rest of you niggas ain't never gone through it[00:01:59]
How many niggas in the Penn[00:02:02]
How many niggas in the cemetary don't know why[00:02:03]
How many strikes y'all niggas need[00:02:05]
How many innocent children in the ghetto got to lose their lives[00:02:06]
Why why you gotta make your moma cry[00:02:09]
Huh she take you out of the street[00:02:13]
'Cause that's where you gonna die[00:02:15]
But you won't listen cause your mind is one track[00:02:16]
And your head is hard[00:02:18]
And your getting flipped and your talking back[00:02:19]
Showing your ashy act ass straight up off the wall[00:02:21]
Lemme talk to y'all don't think it's too hard to fall[00:02:23]
But that's far and all[00:02:25]
And sore and all it's cool when it started off[00:02:26]
Now niggas ducking bullets like dodgeballs[00:02:28]
Niggas got me scared to plant my seeds fear of high's gonna grow[00:02:30]
Living in a messed up time a messed up court[00:02:33]
I'm telling ya you can't do shit no more[00:02:36]
It's bigger than us it's out of our hands[00:02:37]
That's why I'm praying to God[00:02:39]
Oh heavenly father keep my head above the water[00:02:41]
Cause it's your world and we your children[00:02:44]
Your sons and your daughters[00:02:46]
We struggling trying to get out of the ghetto[00:02:48]
Trying to make it to mars[00:02:50]
Uhhhhhh this ghetto got me crazy[00:02:52]
Mama won't you pray for your baby[00:02:56]
Uhhhhhh I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:02:59]
Mama I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:03:03]
Uhhhhhh this ghetto got me crazy[00:03:06]
Mama won't you pray for your baby[00:03:10]
Uhhhhhh I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:03:14]
Mama I'm just a ghetto child trying to make it[00:03:17]
Dear mama pray for your son hoping I can make it through this game[00:03:20]
Wishing I can change I've been through so much[00:03:23]
Seen so many things couldn't find the words to explain[00:03:25]
The only way to avoid stress is to get high by drinking Hennessey[00:03:28]
But I can't get too high cause I gotta keep my eyes on my enemies[00:03:31]
I've seen harder times but there gonna be some harder days[00:03:34]
Penetentary close but you know what cemetaries ain't that far away[00:03:38]
Before I die I'm trying to make the whole world feel[00:03:41]
Like our people scared to stand there[00:03:44]
'Cause the way we express ourself they think that we all some killers[00:03:46]
Now look into the eyes of a ghetto child influenced by the street[00:03:49]
Go to sleep to gunshots wake up from the sirens of the police[00:03:52]
See now my life ain't been the same nigga life as a thug[00:03:56]
If I had to draw a picture of my life[00:03:59]
I have to paint my picture in blood[00:04:01]
Closest homie died before he die little cousin told me this[00:04:03]
Get you something cause cemetaries[00:04:06]
Packed full of niggas who had dreams to be rich[00:04:08]
So keep your head up to all my ghetto children it was hard[00:04:10]
To tell my family one day I was gonna grow up to make millions[00:04:14]
When I told them they seemed to laugh at my so called dream[00:04:17]
I like to scream when I came home from jail[00:04:21]
When I was told best friend turned into a fiend[00:04:23]
I ain't gonna lie my conscience ain't clear when I close my eyes[00:04:24]
But you gotta realize God forgive me I'm just trying to survive[00:04:28]
They cut welfare and health care that shit gotta stop[00:04:32]
I got a positive note my auntie having a baby[00:04:35]
Congratulations she on rocks[00:04:37]
